Chile's T.H. named best New World white wine

ENDING their trip to ExpoVinis S?o Paulo on a high note, Chilean vintner Vi?a Undurraga saw their wine T.H. (Terroir Hunter), from acclaimed oenologist Rafael Urrejola, honoured as the best white wine from the New World.

Over 200 wineries from across Latin America, Europe, Oceania and Africa participated in Brazil's ExpoVinis, one of the world's most recognized international wine fairs.

T.H. is a very fresh, aromatic and intense Sauvignon Blanc from Lo Abarca Valley 2011 harvest. Influenced by the vineyard's proximity to the Pacific Ocean, it boasts mature citrus aromas including limes and tangerines, which mix with hints of fennel, honey, a subtle earthy tone and a faint scent of gunpowder. The result is a broad and structured wine on the palate, with a sharp acidity and notes of salt, stone, and an underlying minerality responsible for its enduring taste and character.
